The owner is really, really into his restaurant and excitedly told us all about all the different specials and options. My sister and I got the set menu, the Artemis (meat) menu which was fairly steep at £27.50 per person. Food was good and came in courses. 1. Sauce sampler of hummus, taramosalata, tzatziki and baba ganoush with bread. 2. Meat sampler of a single keftede, spanakopita and loukaniko per person. 3. Horatiki salad. 4. Entree served family style of grilled pork and chicken. 5. Dessert of yogurt with honey, a single baklava, karydopita and kataifi per person. Courses came out fairly slow and they unfortunately forgot about us for our last course. The owner gives great service, but he can't be expected to be on top of every table as it got very busy. The female server with reddish hair (spoke Greek) seemed out of it and not a good help to him. We ended up spending more than 2 hours at the restaurant, and it came down to the owner not having good support from the one waitress around, but the food was very good. Would have preferred it to be a little less expensive, but I'd go back.

Unfortunately the hype didn't live up to the results. The octopus (You'll love it! It's amazing!) was too crispy / oily for me and felt overcooked.

Came here on a recommendation of a friend who lives in London and we were not at all disappointed…read more We started with some great cocktails and I really enjoyed the Aegean Negroni I opted for; the addition of black pepper simple syrup really added to the complexity of the drink. Every single dish we had was superb, from the jars of tzatziki and tiropita to the crispy calamari and seabass tartare to start. The fresh bread, which was lightly charred, really paired well with the tzatziki and tiropita which were lightly whipped and so flavorful. The seabass came with a cucumber and jalapeno broth which had just the right amount of spice to elevate the fish. For main we split the lamb and grilled octopus which were both perfectly prepared. The lamb, which appeared to be sous vide, was cooked to an exquisite medium rare and the octopus had a great char both was still tender. The service and setting were both great and we highly recommend this establishment.

This has been a special place for years. I took my daughter there just by chance in 2018 and it…read morewas fantastic. I was introduced to mastiha liquor given gratis upon sitting down, the loukamades in a box with the once chocolate one was a great touch. I live outside of the UK but when each of my children reached a certain age, I would take them on a trip to London and Mazi was always on the itinerary. Unfortunately the experience has dwindled each time. I took my youngest to Mazi this summer and they could not have cared less. Additionally the crowds and vibrancy I remember are much less. But the service was the most disappointing. I tried to explain how we had been looking forward to this and our family tradition (I even bought the cookbook), but to no avail. Maybe I was too excited and it was just a normal night for them. The great ideas of the menu seem to be just on autopilot now. Perhaps the novelty of it all has worn off on me too, but the loukamades presentation is different now. Boxes are gone. And perhaps I should not have ordered the radishes, but it came out without any dipping sauce or anything. Just raw radishes. Maybe it's still a great place, and maybe it was just an off night, but I will no longer be taking that risk. .

They have the menu up on the board as well as a QR code, you can order at the register as well as online which I found very convenient if you don't want your server to keep coming to check on you for when you're ready. I ordered a gyro and a Greek salad on the side, not only were the portions generous, but it was so delish, the salad had plenty of dressing and plenty of everything, the gyro was hard to grab from how full it was (a very good problem to have if you ask me) and very affordable which I was surprised. For drinks, they did have beer and wine as well as some juiced and coke products, one thing though, they didn't have ice, not just that day but in general, maybe a Greek think? Not sure but be mindful of that, luckily my soda was already cold lol. The place is like a cross between a regular restaurant and a fast food place, where you can comfortably sit and your food comes out fairly quickly, I recommend this place to all my friends, and can't wait to go back again!
